Ashley's BoB

I can't believe I totally forgot about this! Anyways Probability is alright. There are some questions that I find I'm able to do fast and other questions where I really have to think about it and I get stuck because I can't find the compliment. I actually think probablitity is a lot easier than combinations because probability uses combinations so I'm a lot more familiar with it. But overall I understand how to get some of the questions. But questions like the one on the pre-test I still need to work on. I'm just glad I made it on time to do the BoB. 2 minutes before math starts haha.... Do well guys (:

Richard's BOB on PROB

One thing I can say about probability is that you need to understand the situation to get the right solution...
we follow some basic rules such as if it is "and" it means that we multiply probabilities and if it says "or", we add probabilities. But we also need to know if it is mutually exlcusive or not, independent or dependent...
...but there's only one thing that we shoulld always keep in mind regarding the probabilities, it is a number between 0 and 1 and the sum of the probabilities of the events will always equal to 1...

I hope everyone will do good on the test..Good luck and God Bless!!

This unit had it's pros and cons. In the beggining i was getting confused, but since we were exposed to this unit for quite some time i was able to understand the concept, and therefore i am confident i will do well in this test. Hmmm maybe..haahha can't be too confident..but that pre-test was good, i was able to answer most of the questions without a problem. Hopefully i will do well tomorrow. Man i have been missing a lot of work lately, because of my loss of internet connection, got to earn some marks. GOOD LUCK everybody =D

wow this unit has it's up and down. You would have to read twice ,to be able to write down your answer. sometime the answer you think its right might be even wrong.The first couple of part of unit was easy but it gets harder ,and harder. These questions you would have to do alot to be able to be familar with it. So practice,practice. Well thats all i have to say. bye

This unit is very interesting and I get most of it. It's just that sometimes when it seems like you have the right answer, you don't..does that make any sense? What I mean by that is that a wrong answer can seem right as to the point where it looks possible so you end up getting the wrong answer. So multiple choice questions for this unit are pretty difficult. I really like the long answers where something is assumed given that an event happens, because they're a breeze. What's really hard to remember is that you always have to have the probability over the sample space and I always forget that. The pre-test was okay so I'm sure the test will be okay as well. Good luck everyone.

well here's my last minute blog...almost forgot. For this unit I thought it was going fine and then we had the group work for parabolas which kind of scared me because I couldn't get the answer since I forgot what to do...but then afterwards i remembered which was good...we should have handed in the second parabola question..my group actually got that one correct..yayy..well anyway back to the test, the quiz for some odd reason i didn't do too well in which really sucks because I thought I knew everything so now I think I don't know anything.I think it'll be okay I just have to try my best..I think I got all of my thoughts for this test out so see everyone tomorrow and good luck on the test.

hmm, conics. i think this unit was pretty straight forward. i pretty much know what i'm doing. i've actually learned a different way of doing the equations. it's all good (: goodluck on the test tomorrow.

gooday&goodnight.

man , i am trying my best on this one , everytime we do a test , i always mess up. I know how to do the questions , but somehow, the question always different , very little is the same that we do on our assignments. Like i do well in homework , but when the test comes , its like everything is different then what i have done before. Well like Mr k said , " your mark determines , how much time you put into it". This unit is ok , its not bad, very short.well i hope i pass this test good luck everyone

The CONICS was a very interesting, mind-squizzing, and mental blocking unit (...for me!!!). It was a lot of "It seems like a complicated problem" remark but in reality, most of Mr. K's problem are the basics. Unfornately in my part, I found it hard to solve word problems especially when we are looking for the equation such as the ellipses and hyperbola. Parabola equations are way easier to solve than ellipses and hyperbola because I sometimes mixed up the information needed to find the equation. Futhermore, complicated word problems sort of gave me a headache specifically when I'm in the part of solving the equation then suddenly I'm stock because I do not know what will be my next step but in all fairness, Mr. K did a great job in teaching us this unit. He explained every unsolved problems in details and he never gave up on us until we are confident enough to solve CONICS problems with a guaranteed high mark. In addition, I would to thank those who helped me in this unit because without I may not be able to understand some of the topics.

Go pre-cal 40S!!!!!!!!!!!!....We can all do it on top!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richard's 6th BOB

In this unit, CONICS, ahhh! I find it difficult.
(How many times did I say the word difficult in my BOB?)
I somehow understand the lesson but still I don't have enough background in this unit.
Maybe because I didn't take grade 11 here. It's really hard for me to adjust.
There are lots of formula to memorize and lots of critical cases.
This unit is so painful..but I still believe in "No pain, No gain"
I should really work harder for this unit. It's so sad that I don't have the time to ask Mr. K (or rather shy).
Anyway...good luck everyone to the test! We still had a long time to prepare.

perms and combs.. what a great unit. i actually understand this more than last year. this year we went through this unit more throughly. there are some problems that i would get.. like when to use the "pick" or "choose", sometimes you just have to re-read the question a couple of times to get it. i think that's all that's bothering me at the moment =/ goodluck on the test tomorrow (:

gooday&goodnight.

Richard's BOB on combinatorics

This unit, Combinatorics, is an interesting unit. It doesn't give me stress at all. But be careful...because it is tricky. You don't need to follow the formula. Just carefully analyze the problem and you will surely get the correct answer. I'm having trouble about arranging things with different kind of restrictions. I'm always got stuck on how to deal with those problems. Pick and choose is easy as long as you know which one is to use.
In this unit, I also learned about patterns especially the Pascal's triangle. Binomial Expansion theorem is also a great lesson. In card problems, I'm familiar with the terms that is being used. But it seems like it is still complicated.

Good luck everyone for the test! I hope we all did not just good but the BEST!

Holy moly ! it's not even funny, this unit went by fast, but I mean, I didn't get much, the beggining made a it of sense, then I lsot myself somewhere, tried to do some homework and I got what was happening, but then once we got in class, I totally dunno what was going on, wowsers, I need to study hardcore tonight! but good luck to everyone else ! =).

wow man i almost forgot , to do this , good thing i remebered. What can i said this was a very hard unit. You need alot of practice or your serious done.well thats all i have say , now im going back to study more.by3

hmm.. another test coming up tomorrow.. wow, i just realized i soo wasn't prepared for that online quiz. i know i get the concept of logs and exponents. but it's just the basic things that are killing me =/ hopefully the morning class of review will do me good. goodluck guys (:

gooday&goodnight.
